Testimonials
When I was Director of Membership at SNAME, we hired Ed as a consultant to help us with our strategy for recruitment and retention. Ed really helped us think about our society in terms of the value that we were delivering to our members. Ed forced us to take an honest look at the features of SNAME membership – what do members get, and how does it make their lives better?
I attended one of Ed’s seminars on Member ROI. It was well organized, highly interactive, and the information provided was very useful. Having worked with nonprofit organizations for more than a decade in various capacities, I have attended many workshops and seminars.This seminar was, by far, one of the best. Ed reinforced much of what I have learned over the years, and also provided new insight and guidance concerning emerging issues. I enthusiastically recommend Ed for any professional development trainings geared toward nonprofit staff.
Our association invited Ed to present his concepts to help our membership better market themselves utilizing powerful methods often overlooked by consultants. His advice was straightforward, tested, and instrumental is helping shift the thinking of many of our members. If you want honest, proven advice on how to grow your business, listen to Ed Rigsbee!
Our Association has worked with Ed on several projects, and he took the time to get to know our members and their needs. His innovative programs and member valuation and recruitment and retention efforts have made a difference in our strategic planning and marketing. We have also close followed his message related to strategic alliances and have made inroads in creating synergy in our industry through efforts related to this. I highly recommend Ed Rigsbee as a professional speaker or business consultant.
